Price established the low at 00:00 GMT near the open and advanced steadily to register the high at 16:59 GMT, before settling in the upper half of the day’s range by the close at 23:56 GMT.

(GBPUSD H1)

The past 24 hours featured a weak US labor update: Nonfarm Payrolls printed 22.0, well below the 129.0 forecast and down from 73.0 previously, while the Unemployment Rate rose to 4.3 percent compared with 4.2 percent prior and a 4.1 percent consensus. The combination of a much smaller payroll gain and a higher jobless rate signals cooling momentum in the labor market, which could lessen pressure on policymakers to tighten further if the trend persists. Looking ahead, there are no major economic data releases or scheduled events in the next 24 hours, leaving the calendar effectively empty and providing no new official readings to challenge or confirm the latest labor signal. With the absence of fresh data points today, traders may face sharp moves as liquidity and positioning amplify follow-through from the payrolls surprise.
